I noticed that my pasenger side front caliper was sticking so I replaced it. After a test drive the passenger side wheel was cool to the touch but the drivers side was to hot to the touch. Pulled driver side apart caliper seems to be releasing fine (it's a year old) But wheel bearing was toast. Replaced wheel bearing went for a test drive and the drivers side wheel is cool to the touch but the passenger side is to hot to touch. Any suggestions on where to go with it now ?????
 
mebbe stupid quesztion but are you bleeding em?
 
yes, I even bled the rear wheels starting w/ the wheel farthest from the master cyl. and working closer. the last wheel bled being the drivers side front.
 
It is not common but some times parts are defective. Did you determine if it was wheel bearings or the caliper that is producing the heat on the pass side?
 
I did re-pack the pass. side wheel bearings. They looked good , not discolored like the toasted drivers side.
